Yes, I understand, but what I was alluding to is the collection object, not
the output files. They are different. The collection objects can be used to
perform the performance collection and then can be "dumped" to the
performance files that you are refering to. Chances are, unless someone has
been mucking around in OpsNav and the Management Central collection options,
that there aren't any collection objects, but OpsNav can tell you that.

Ok.

Ok, but that's only 2% of your disk space. The file was that size or the
journal receiver was that size?

<LOL> well I wouldn't put it past the BRMS folks to use 20GB of disk space
just because you "looked" at it.... (just kidding...)
